    Pesto chicken quinoa bowl
    M R.

    The restaurant is very bright and open without being overly loud so we happily enjoyed our breakfast with conversation. E had the farmhouse hash and pesto chicken quinoa bowl, both of which were nicely done. The pesto bowl has fantastic flavor and kept me full straight through lunch. My daughter had the hash and said the eggs were perfectly done and enjoyed the seasoning on the potatoes. We would definitely go back again!

    Elevated Egg Sandwich

    This is such a a great brunch spot! Even on a busy Saturday afternoon we only had about a 15 minute wait. The service here is friendly and food came out pretty quickly. I ordered the Elevated Egg Sandwich which came with potatoes. The sandwich was very tasty and the potatoes were seasoned perfectly! I would definitely come back to this place!

    Our favorite local brunch spot! Always great service and food! This visit did not disappoint. Be sure to check out the seasonal menus. Always delicious finds on there.

    First Watch always has quality ingredients, a reliable menu, and always hits the spot! I met up here with a friend for lunch in June. I love the Pick 2 for lunch special, so if you're undecided, you can get two. And if you're still undecided, you can get a side to go with your lunch. If you see my photo, I was absolutely undecided, haha! The Cobb Salad was great, I loved the presentation and all of the toppings. The Club Sandwich was filling and also not lacking for toppings. The fruit cup was fresh. I love how quick you can get in and out here. The service is always fast. The high ceilings here make it feel larger than it is. And although typically full and somewhat loud, it is always a great place to meet up with friends and have an enjoyable and comfortable lunch. I highly recommend First Watch.

    I love First Watch! I never have a bad experience and the food is always great! This location is especially nice! Most First Watch are in a shopping plaza/strip mall. This location is a stand alone with its own dedicated parking lot. The ceilings are high. With all the windows, it's so bright and open. This location also has a bar where you can sit to eat/ order drinks. Our service was great as usual. I tried the Bananas Foster French toast ($12.99). It had great flavors and was delicious! It is very sweet, so beware if you are watching your sugar intake. The elevated egg sandwich ($12.49) is always a solid choice and their fried potatoes are a good side. If you haven't tried this spot, you should!

    Went with my girlfriends in sunday for brunch and it was first time. The wait wasn't long and the host was being great! The deco inside was simple but it makes u feel homey and comfortable! Our server was very attentive and quick with taking care of us! He was super awesome. I ask him some drink suggestion, and he explained to me and also suggested some fresh squeeze juice. I took my chance and try it and very delicious!!! I order my food salad and sandwich combo, similar to Panera Bread, but like an upgrade version. My ham and cheese sandwich was so bomb!!! My salad was good, I wish they have raspberry vinaigrette that's would compliment my taste. But overall, the food and services was top notch! My friends food was good too, we all kill off everything Lolololol. I would come back for another brunch. Highly recommended!

I will not drag the competition, but Dublin's Pass was the clear winner. I won't use specifics, but you get so much more bang for your buck, purely from a financial aspect. Let me first say, the eggs arrive on a plate with a light breading that adds the perfect balance of crunch yet balanced with the soft egg. All brought to you with a mustard that is the perfect combination of pickled veg and punchy mustard. The meat was cooked perfectly. The combination between the meat, egg and mustard marry one another beautifully to lend to a flavor roller coaster in your mouth. What really sets these Scotch eggs apart is the attention to detail. They taste like they are meant for a flavor rollercoaster. Each element feels intentional. Whether you're a longtime Scotch egg lover or trying one for the first time, this restaurant sets the bar high. Simply put: these are the Scotch eggs other places should be aspiring. Eggs aside, we also had an order of the boneless wings. Not a hard thing to get right, but we had roasted garlic parmesan with garlic aioli, to die for. I am from out of town, and this place is absolutely a must. It will never not be on to do list.

Eating in a wing back chair, at some odd table, isn't well suited for dining. But, sure looks neat. The food is ok to good: Burger : The burger was really good. Has some jam sauce on it which really works. Beef has a good flavor. The bacon was very good. . Potato soup: The soup is good....but needed far greater seasoning to have it be great. Pork Wings: Again, needed more seasoning to elevate the pork. And the dipping sauces were a bit unusual. And the Asian style sauce - by gosh did it have a ton of saffron. Patagonia side item: These potato chunks weren't much. Potatoes were nothing special, under seasoned and the dipping sauce was unusual. And so much saffron, it was way overpowering. . Is it worth going to - absolutely and the place is neat. But I give an extra 1/2 to 1 star more, just because of the neatness of the place.

    I really wanted to like The Table…read more The space itself is absolutely beautiful -- one of the best dining rooms in Springfield -- and it feels like the kind of place that should deliver a more elevated, full-service experience. That's part of what made the counter-service model feel a little out of sync with the atmosphere. We first tried visiting as a group of about 12 on a Saturday around 7 PM. I had called ahead and was told they don't take reservations, so we planned accordingly. When we arrived, we were told there wasn't any way to accommodate our group together -- not even the option to wait for space to open up -- so we ended up going elsewhere. I did come back later with a smaller group for lunch. The experience was better logistically, but still a bit disjointed. The menu felt somewhat scattered, and while we were able to find seating at a communal table, the overall flow felt a bit chaotic. After ordering at the counter, the wait for food was quite long -- around 45 minutes or more -- which gave us plenty of time to observe how things were running. Toward the end, I noticed tables being marked as unavailable/reserved, which made me wonder why a similar approach couldn't have worked for larger groups earlier. When the food arrived, it was good -- nothing wrong with it -- but not especially memorable, especially considering the wait and price point. There's a lot to like here, especially the space and overall concept, but the execution didn't quite match the expectations for me. I do think with some adjustments to service flow and consistency, this could be a much stronger experience.

    LOUD AF on a Tuesday night with incredibly slow service…read more I like to eat in local places while we're on the road. Read about this place being historic with a beautiful bar and lovely tin ceiling. And that is all true. Walked in and could not believe how loud the single singer with an acoustic guitar was. There was a sound engineer, working a board, so he must've thought that level was OK. But you could not have a conversation at all. I was wishing for earplugs. When we first stepped in, I considered just looking at the carved mahogany bar and going somewhere else. But, we figured it should be fast and we could endure the cacophony for a short time. We were so wrong about it being fast. There was only one wait staff working that night, and she was also behind the bar. When she finally moseys over to us, she admitted she had forgotten all about us. She then took our drink order, and the drinks came quickly. But then she literally never came back to take a food order. Watched her go to all the other tables, watched her clean off the bar, watched her answer a phone call for a takeout order, and then I finally went up to the bar and asked her if we could put in a food order. Once the food was ordered it came out quickly. My husband's smashburger and candied pecan salad were both really delicious. I am a sucker for a local food item whenever I see it on the menu, and I made the mistake of ordering the cashew chicken poutine. The cashew sauce had zero flavor and was just overly salty. The chicken was fried very tough. At least the cheese curds were good. But I barely ate any of it. Nothing but regret about this choice.
